Kilimanjaro: Hahn & Team Explore the Arumeru River Lodge

This was our Kilimanjaro kickoff day... but it was also our Kili catch-up day. We began our climb by sitting down as a group just after breakfast and strategizing. We went through our itinerary and discussed goals and contingencies. Then we checked each climber's gear and clothing for the trip, finally we packed and weighed each load. We had lunch outside under the patio awning as dik diks (smallest of the antelope family) roamed the grounds and velvet monkeys played in the trees. Afternoon was the "catch-up" portion of the day as we rested and attempted to reset our day/night perceptions to fit our new setting -about nine time zones off -give or take. We'd take trips up the Lodge's observation tower from time to time in order to look for Kili on the horizon. Clouds kept it hidden today though. Tomorrow we'll set out for the mountain just after breakfast and will relay a team picture or two as we progress. Best Regards, RMI Guide Dave Hahn

Hi Mom and dad,

Love,

Kilimanjaro: Hahn & Team All Present in Tanzania

We've gotten eleven climbers -and their gear- through an assortment of aircraft and airports to the outskirts of Arusha, Tanzania. What with ample jet lag, it can't be declared with certainty that all are now sleeping at the Arumeru River Lodge, but all are now in residence (at 4 AM). In a few hours, we'll wake up to begin a Kilimanjaro adventure. It will begin with coffee and a velvet monkey or two out in the garden-like patio of the lodge. We'll eat breakfast (if the monkeys don't) and meet finally as one big team to figure out the start of our week-long climb to the highest point in Africa. Best Regards, RMI Guide Dave Hahn

Great adventure with both guides.  Both were very professional and focused on everyone’s safety first.  My first climb and would come climb with RMI again in a heart beat.  Steve was our rope team’s guide - very knowledgeable and answered all of our many questions.  Cousin Joe made it to the top with the help of Steve and others.  Thanks again for the memorable adventure!

Remember…. it is the trip that is most important…not the destination…per “Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: an inquiry into values” by Robert M. Pirsig”...from a ‘60s mama…...love and prayers for all…come home safely.

Posted by: Sharen Hart on 8/30/2017 at 7:37 pm

Glad you’re all safe. Even though you weren’t able to reach the summit, I hope the journey was an adventure!
